- 7. Proprietary Materials; Licenses
- 7.1 Proprietary Materials. The
Website is owned and operated by Moonlight Press. The visual interfaces,
graphics, design, compilation, information, computer code (including
source code or object code), software, services, content, videos and
exercises, and all other elements of the Website (the “Website
Materials”) are protected by United States and international copyright,
patent, and trademark laws, international conventions, and other applicable
laws governing intellectual property and proprietary rights. Except for
any User Content provided and owned by Users and except as otherwise set
forth in this Section 7, all Website Materials, and all trademarks,
service marks, and trade names, contained on or available through the
Website are owned by or licensed to Moonlight Press, and Moonlight Press
reserves all rights therein and thereto not expressly granted by these
Terms.
- 7.2 Licensed Educational Content. Moonlight
Press may make available on the Website certain videos, exercises, and
related supplementary materials that are owned by Moonlight Press or its
third-party licensors (the “Licensed Content”). Moonlight Press grants
to you a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to access and use the
Licensed Content as made available on the Website Moonlight Press solely
for your personal, non-commercial purposes. Unless expressly indicated on
the Website that a particular item of Licensed Content is made available
to Users under alternate license terms, you may not download, distribute,
sell, lease, modify, or otherwise provide access to the Licensed Content
to any third party.
- (a) Alternate Licenses. In certain
cases, Moonlight Press or its licensors may make available Licensed
Content under alternate license terms, such as a variant of the Creative
Commons License (as defined below) (each, an “Alternate License”).
Where expressly indicated as such on the Website, and subject to the
terms and conditions of these Terms, the applicable Licensed Content is
licensed to You under the terms of the Alternate License. By using,
downloading, or otherwise accessing such Licensed Content, You agree to
comply fully with all the terms and conditions of such Alternate
License.
- (b) Creative Commons License.
Unless expressly otherwise identified on the Website with respect to a
particular item of Licensed Content, any reference to the “Creative
Commons”, “CC” or similarly-phrased license shall be deemed to be a
reference to the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike
3.0 United States License (available at
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/us/) (the “Creative
Commons License”).
- 7.4 Non-Commercial Use. The Licensed
Content and Licensed Code are intended for personal, non-commercial use
only. Without limiting the foregoing, and notwithstanding the terms of
any Alternate License for such Licensed Content, the Licensed Content may
not be used, distributed or otherwise exploited for any commercial
purpose, commercial advantage or private monetary compensation, unless
otherwise previously agreed in writing by Moonlight Press.
- (a) Impermissible Uses. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following are types of
uses that Moonlight Press expressly defines as falling outside of
“non-commercial” use:
- i. the sale or rental of (1) any
part of the Licensed Content, (2) any derivative works based at least
in part on the Licensed Content, or (3) any collective work that
includes any part of the Licensed Content;
- ii. providing training, support,
or editorial services that use or reference the Licensed Content in
exchange for a fee; and
- iii. the sale of advertisements,
sponsorships, or promotions placed on the Licensed Content, or any part
thereof, or the sale of advertisements, sponsorships, or promotions on
any website or blog containing any part of the Licensed Material,
including without limitation any “pop-up advertisements”.
- (b) Use Characterization. Whether a
particular use of the Licensed Content is “non-commercial” depends on
the use, not the user. Thus, a use of the Licensed Content that does not
require that users pay fees and that does not provide an entity with a
commercial advantage is “non-commercial,” even if this use is by a
commercial entity. Conversely, any use that involves charging users in
connection with their access to the Licensed Content is not
“non-commercial,” even if this use is by a non-profit entity. As an
example, a for-profit corporation’s use of the Licensed Content for
internal professional development or training of employees is permitted,
so long as the corporation charges no fees, directly or indirectly, for
such use. Conversely, as another example, a non-profit entity’s use of
the Licensed Content in connection with an fee-based training or
educational program is NOT “non-commercial” and is not permitted.
- 7.5 Crediting Moonlight Press. If
You distribute, publicly perform or display, transmit, publish, or
otherwise make available any Licensed Content or any derivative works
thereof, You must also provide the following notice prominently along
with such Licensed Content or derivative work thereof: “All Moonlight-Press
content is available at www.moonlight-press.com”.

if provided by You through the Website. In such case, notice will be
deemed given three days after the date of mailing. Notice posted on the
Website is deemed given 30 days following the initial posting.
- 14.2 Waiver. The failure of Moonlight

constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver of any
provision of the Terms will be effective only if in writing and signed by
Moonlight Press.
- 14.3 Dispute Resolution and
Arbitration.
- (a) Governing Law. The Terms will
be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
California, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law.
- (b) Arbitration. For any claim
related to the Terms or the Website, excluding claims for injunctive or
other equitable relief, where the total amount sought is less than ten
thousand U.S. Dollars ($10,000.00 USD), either Moonlight Press or You
may elect at any point in or during a dispute or proceeding to resolve
the claim through binding non-appearance-based arbitration. A party
electing arbitration shall initiate it through an established
alternative dispute resolution ("ADR") provider
mutually agreed upon by the parties. The ADR provider and the parties
must comply with the following rules: (a) the arbitration shall be
conducted, at the option of the party seeking relief, by telephone,
online, or based solely on written submissions; (b) the arbitration shall
not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless
otherwise mutually agreed by the parties; and (c) any judgment on the
award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of
competent jurisdiction.
- (c) Jurisdiction. You agree that
any action at law or in equity arising out of or relating to the Terms
or Moonlight Press will be filed only in the state or federal courts in
and for King County, Washington, and each of You and Moonlight Press hereby
consent and submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of such
courts for the purposes of litigating any such action, except as
provided in Section 14.3(b) regarding arbitration. Notwithstanding this,
Moonlight Press shall still be allowed to apply for injunctive or other
equitable relief to protect or enforce its intellectual property rights
in any court of competent jurisdiction.
- (d) Improperly Filed Claims. All
claims you bring against Moonlight Press must be resolved in accordance
with this Section 14.3. All claims filed or brought contrary to this
Section 14.3 shall be considered improperly filed. Should either party
file a claim contrary to this Section 14.3, the other party may recover
attorneys' fees and costs up to one thousand U.S. Dollars ($1,000.00
USD), provided that such party seeking such fees has notified the other
in writing of the improperly filed claim, and the other has failed to
promptly withdraw the claim.
- (e) Claims. YOU AND MOONLIGHT PRESS
AGREE THAT ANY CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE WEBSITE
MUST COMMENCE WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES.
OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
- 14.4 Severability. If any provision
of the Terms or any Guidelines is held to be unlawful, void, or for any
reason unenforceable, then that provision will be limited or eliminated
from the Terms to the minimum extent necessary and will not affect the
validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
- 14.5 Assignment. The Terms and
related Guidelines, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may
not be transferred or assigned by You without Moonlight Press’s prior
written consent, but may be assigned by Moonlight Press without consent
or any restriction. Any assignment attempted to be made in violation of
